DIY Home Decor with Iron On Transfer Sheets

Here I go again making more DIY Home Decor with Iron On Transfer Sheets! It’s my favorite way to add new budget-friendly decor to any room! I love creating new pillow designs and dish towels for my home every season, with free printables and iron-on transfer paper.

Another favorite was creating a holiday gift of Cinnamon Bread and wrapping it in a tea towel that had the recipe iron-on. Recipe Printed Dish Towel.

You may recognize the botanical flower that I used for the free printable botanical wall art.I used the image without the poem and decided to use it on a pillow and a cotton tea towel.

I could stare at it all day!

How to Use Iron-On Transfer Sheets

Supplies Needed:

Following the directions supplied on the transfer paper package, load your printer, making sure it prints on the blank side.

Trim your design and lie it face down on your fabric.

If you’re using an iron, be sure to turn the steam off. I like using my EasyPress Heat Press. Apply the heat to the image and iron gently for about 20-30 seconds.

Let it cool before pulling the paper away from the design. I start with a small corner to make sure the image doesn’t pull away. If it does, then place the paper back in its spot and apply heat again.

And that’s IT!

You can wash as normal.

I created both a kitchen towel and a new pillow!

Isn’t it gorgeous?
